Etymology

The word 'hated' originates from the Old English 'hatan', meaning 'to command' or 'to be named,' which later evolved to mean 'to have a detestation.' The transition from meaning to I command to express one's strong aversion is significant. The term 'hate' in its noun form associated with emotional disdain can be traced back to the 12th century. Its usage has been anchored in many cultures and languages, evolving with the expression of human emotions. The construction of the word through derivational morphemes showcases how prefixes and suffixes play a role in transforming a base form into various grammatical variants, like 'hated' as the past participle form. This evolution reflects the growing complexity of human feelings and societal norms surrounding love and hate.
